A single feeling

Chapter 7

Nathan

"Oh, man, what kind of a hot woman did you catch you there?", With a lewd grin Jaden drops onto the black sofa: "And can you get me one like that?"

I have to control myself, not to give him an annoyed look. Of course, I also noticed that my new assistant looks above average and has a wonderful body. But that does not mean anything. For me she is just an employee and that will stay that way.

"I did not catch it," I say, rolling my eyes. "The HR manager hired her." Jaden's right eyebrow wanders doubtfully up, "So you're telling me that you did not have your fingers in play, not a bit at least?" "Not a bit," I reply, turning away from the computer screen.

"Then I call that a nice coincidence", he grins broadly. His look unmistakably tells me that he does not believe so clearly in what I tell him. I roll my eyes a little annoyed. Why can not my brother think of the brain more often than the pants?

"You can not tell me she does not like you," to my chagrin, he does not seem to let himself be diverted from the subject. I usually appreciate this stubbornness, but I just wish it right now.

"She's my employee," I deliberately avoid his question. Because of course I like how the black fabric of her dress fits perfectly to her beautiful curves and how her dark hair falls in gentle curls over her shoulders. It could almost be said that the term 'perfect' was made for her.

"So what?" He asks a little stupidly, as if he could not see the problem. "My employees are a taboo," I look at him seriously, "And you should stick to that."

He shrugs his shoulders lightly: "We'll see." I do not like the look on his face. He should kindly keep away from my new assistant.

"Why are you here?" I ask a woman who has been busy all the time. After all, he rarely visits me in my office, especially since we live together. So small talk can hardly be his concern.

"I wanted to tell you that the cosmetics manufacturers have called in. You need the concept for the commercial earlier than you thought," suddenly Jaden is serious again and the CEO I know. "What, but our department is not finished yet," I sound a little perplexed. I really did not expect that at all. "I know, that's why I wanted to talk to you," he gets up from the sofa and walks slowly through the room with his hands in the pockets of his suit jacket.

"What do you intend to do now?", I hate, because I myself do not know how we should develop a good concept in such a short time. "We should insert an extra meeting in which we first brainstorm and then commit ourselves to a topic," he explains his plan: "Then we can work faster on the implementation."

To my surprise, this proposal sounds not bad. Efficient work is under time pressure, which is the most important thing anyway. "Okay, then I'll call Miss Dawson right away and ask you to make an appointment as soon as possible and inform everyone involved," I reply, knowing that she'll do it. At first impression she made a pretty intelligent impression.

"Well, then I'll let you work on," he goes to the door. I nod in silence, knowing that he does not see the answer anyway. But before he steps out of the room, he turns back to me, with his hand on the doorknob, and looks at me seriously: "Nathan?" "Yes?" I ask, a little puzzled. "Be good to her," he examines me for a moment, as if he wants to take a promise from me. Although I press the jaws on each other, because I do not like it, if he interferes in my life, but then nods.
